Could mean a lot of things. Maybe you were thinking about, or interacting with snakes that day before bed and it carried over into your dreams.
Snakes, according to Freudian analysts, can be a phallic symbol and represent a penis. Therefore, this could have been a sexual dream.
However, this is not always the case. To paraphrase what Freud himself once said, "sometimes a snake is JUST a snake".

Snakes are symbolic of different things in many cultures. So, without knowing the exact details of your dream or what is going on in your life, I cannot accurately tell you what this means to you.
The snake is one of the world's oldest symbols found. They are often used as phallic symbols and have long been linked with pagan fertility gods. Because it lives close to the ground, the snake is an emblem of the nurturing earth and also the unknown perils of the underworld.
Christian imagery emphasizes the dark side of this symbol. It is considered evil, yet it is the snake, created by God, that tempts man to gain knowledge.
In dreams, a snake can represent hidden fears. Falling into a pit of snakes may represent the many worries that are threatening you. Sometimes snakes can symbolize the poisonous words and innuendo of the people around you.
Snakes in dreams can also often be omens of transformation and changes in ones life.

Snakes are symbols of death and rebirth, or transformation. This may have a lot to do with their shedding their skins. Are you going though any big changes in your life?
Snakes can also been seen as representing evil, because of the snake's role in the Adam and Eve story. Adding to this, snakes are all symbols of temptation.
The snake's phallic shape also has a sexual significance.
But, as in deconstructing the meaning of any dream, you will need to look at the symbol of the snake in the context of the whole dream and the other symbols present in that dream. Dreams are complex projections of our psyche and sub-conscious, and are thus very difficult to decode.
